Hi,
Hopefully you kind people can point me in the right direction...

I'm a graphic designer (illustrator really) and one of the rare ones who uses a pc not mac... always have done.... nobody at the print shop ever asks... anyway, my poor old duel Core 2 6600 is really struggling so I'm in need of an upgrade.

I'm OK for O/S and HD's but would like help with the following:
Intel processor - which one ?
Memory - 8 to 12 gb ideally
Motherboard
Graphics card - ATI and silent!
...and a nice case.... all this needs to
be pretty much silent and most importantly very, very reliable!
Oh... and not too expensive!

Software I mainly use is Photoshop and Illustrator.

Hope you can help,
Ade
 
I can try and help you, Im a design student who has avoided the mac route too.

What is your budget?
Are you going to be using it for gaming too? You shouldn't need too big a GPU.
